Emily L Sharp Blogger: Global Education Conference 2015 #globaled15

Free, Online PD for Teachers

The sixth annual Global Education Conference 2015 is a free week-long online event bringing together educators and innovators from around the world. This year’s conference will take place Monday, November 16 through Thursday, November 19, 2015.

The entire conference is virtual and will take place online in webinar format. Sessions are held around the clock to accommodate participant time zones.

The conference seeks to present ideas, examples, and projects related to connecting educators and classrooms with a strong emphasis on promoting global awareness, fostering global competency, and inspiring action towards solving real–world problems.

Through this event, it is our hope that attendees will challenge themselves and others to become more active citizens of the world. Let us learn, question, create, and engage in meaningful, authentic opportunities within a global context!

I know that you’re busy, but set a goal of watching one of these. Or bookmark some of the sessions and spend some time over Thanksgiving break (for my US friends) to learn more. My students have presented before and you’ll see many students of other teachers as well as teachers excitedly telling their story! I hope you’ll attend! -Vicki Davis
